Nowadays, many systems rely on fusing different sources of information to recognize human activities and gestures, speech, or brain activities for applications in areas such as clinical practice, and health care and Human Computer Interaction (HCI). Typica ...
This research takes place in the general context of improving the performance of the Distant Speech Recognition (DSR) systems, tackling the reverberation and recognition of overlap speech. Perceptual modeling indicates that sparse representation exists in ...
Visual search is a good illustration about how the brain coordinates a variety of functions such as visual clues extraction from the scene, coordination of the eye-movements, accumu- lation of visual information and visual recognition. It has an important ...
Nowadays, tags play an important role in the search and retrieval process in multimedia content sharing social networks. As the amount of multimedia contents explosively increases, it is a challenging problem to find a content that will be appealing to the ...
We examine in this paper the problem of image registration from the new perspective where images are given by sparse approximations in parametric dictionaries of geometric functions. We propose a registration algorithm that looks for an estimate of the glo ...
Vocal tract length normalisation (VTLN) is a well known rapid adaptation technique. VTLN as a linear transformation in the cepstral domain results in the scaling and translation factors. The warping factor represents the spectral scaling parameter. While, ...
Social media is emerging as a powerful source of communication, information dissemination and mining. Being colloquial and ubiquitous in nature makes it easier for users to express their opinions and preferences in a seamless, dynamic manner. Epidemic surv ...
We present a theoretical investigation into the use of normalised artificial neural network (ANN) outputs in the context of hidden Markov models (HMMs). The work is motivated by the pursuit of a more theoretically rigorous understanding of the Kullback-Lie ...
The widespread use of digital video surveillance systems has also increased the concerns for violation of privacy rights. Since video surveillance systems are invasive, it is a challenge to find an acceptable balance between privacy of the public under sur ...
The Montreux Jazz Festival archives covers almost a half-century of live jazz, rock and pop music, gathering international first-class musicians within a single catalogue. In the frame of the digitization and valorisation of the whole archives by EPFL rese ...
